Misleading sentence

This has the effect of making the Pythagorean sextuple-augmented unison a meantone fifth in size, four of them being ~1.4 cent sharp of 5th harmonic in the 19-limit POTE tuning for instance.

The meantone fifth would thus be +42 generators, and the reader may reason that the fifth harmonic is mapped to +168 generators. The actual mapping of the fifth harmonic is -49 generators, which doesn't line up (even though these are the same interval in 217edo). This sentence is confusing and needs to be replaced with something more accurate.--Overthink (talk) 02:01, 29 November 2025 (UTC)
